Advanced Delegates

Delegates may be the least-understood part of the CLR. Delegates look
a bit like method pointers, but the differences go well beyond
delegates' multi-cast abilities. I will start with a quick survey of
delegate basics, including invocation list editing and event syntax
(which few people seem to really understand). I will then explore
2.0's anonymous methods before concluding with a lengthy discussion of
asynchronous delegate execution and the system ThreadPool. Along the
way, I'll touch on minor topics like covariance and contravariance as
well as creating a delegate instead of repeatedly invoking a
dynamically loaded method.

I followed the links, but couldn't figure out where in Sacramento you're
going to be.

Depending on time of day and venue, I would be interested in attending.
What's the format? Are you gonig to take questions?

There are some more advanced delegate topics I would enjoy discussing with
someone who knows the topics backward and forward.

It's a user group talk - maybe 75 minutes of talk, and time for
questions.

I don't know where in Sacramento this will be: I'll update the web
page as soon as I know.
